Call for testing: Isso 0.12.6

[ix5]

We are getting ready to release Isso 0.12.6.

If no major new bugs are found, we will publish a release within one week (March 6th, 2022).

Please test extensively! Instructions for testing the latest release from the master branch can be found at Installation from source.

Here are some ideas:

• Post a comment
• Post an answer to a comment
• Edit your comment
• Test the admin interface
• Delete a comment from admin, then try to delete from frontend
• Reply to a comment that you have deleted from the admin/as another user
• Use curl commands
• Clear your cookies
• Restore certain cookies
• Embed into a single-page application (SPA)
• Zoom inside your browser
• Play with the embed parameters (data-isso-xyz)
• Play with the server config
• Test whether the docker container still works

Here is a sample isso.conf for testing:

[general]
dbpath = comments.db
host =
    http://localhost:8000/
    http://localhost:8080/
    http://localhost:5000/

One little data point: did some quick testing on my production site and it looked fine

@fliiiix just FYI, all those PRs you opened are perfectly valid but won't make it into this release. Will review when I get to them.

No worries 0.12.6 seems to work fine most of my PRs are very minor improvements

0.12.6 is now released on PyPi.
